When it comes to style, there is something to be said for the classic, traditional look. I mean, it's timeless for a reason, right?

However... what about expressing some personality? Something to show off your individual uniqueness? I love finding just the right accessory for an outfit to give it a little something extra and move it from the ordinary to the extraordinary.

And one of the cutest shops around to do just that is none other than the handmade, stylish, unique creations you'll find at Blushing Dove Boutique.

With everything from handcrafted kawaii headbands, necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, brooches, amigurumi and much more, Blushing Dove Boutique is your one-stop shop for the jewelry and accessories that range from subtle to head-turning.

When the Daisy Lace Stud Earrings from Blushing Dove Boutique arrived, right away I loved the simplicity yet uniqueness that these would add to my wardrobe... not to mention how fun it was that they arrived complete with an adorable magnet and sparkly crystal accents in the package!

In person these sweet earrings are just as cute as they are online. The delicate daisy lace is detailed and attractive while still being securely attached to the stud backings so there is no chance of damage or loss.

Slipping these on, I was happy to see that the size is substantial enough to add that taste of cheerful spring while not being too large that they would draw more attention than I wanted.

Amy at Blushing Dove Boutique has found a way to turn common accessories into unexpected pieces that are sure to be treasured additions to the jewelry boxes of girls and women of all ages. Her extremely reasonable prices (these Daisy Earrings are only $4.95) and one-of-a-kind fashions make it easy to include your own distinctive style to anything from casual to dressy occasions.

Amy has even taken her creativity one step further and has a second shop, Teacup Teddies, that offers handmade miniature bears and animals. So, if a cute little critter is more your thing, you won't have to look any further! These petite creatures would be a great addition to any collection, display or set of sweet animals for anyone.

When you combine artistic talent and vision with high quality and detailed workmanship, the result is completely individualized fun! Blushing Dove Boutique has found a way to do just that and bring it all right to your door in an inexpensive way. What a perfect mixture!

Thanks to Amy's generosity, one person will be able to add a splash of uniqueness to their life through her great accessories, because...
